Painting at Port Manech
Yesterday we drove to Port Manech in Brittany, we had a great time at the beach and an amazing lunch. Afterwards we went to the little port at Port Manech, it's only small but has amazing views. I could see the beach we had been sat on that morning, the tide had come in so much that the shallow pools we had been paddling in were now underwater.
I set up my paints on the car bonnet and made a quick watercolour sketch of the view. While I painted I listened to the sound of people having fun jumping into the water, I imagined the water to still be a little cold this time of year!
The tree on the horizon was a very interesting shape, it reminded me of something I might see in a Japanese painting. I think I may use that tree as inspiration for another piece.
